Yes, but like I said in my other comment - the manufacturer will reject any claim for a car that doesn't have a full service history within their own dealer network. The manufacturer will allow the dealer to submit other proof that the car has been serviced properly, but that takes time and effort, which the dealers don't want to spare, so they decline your warranty claim by not putting it in front of the manufacturer(because that would mean more work for them).
Yeahhhh I wonder if this is a new shell company spun up to either take on the old one as a way to restructure financially and get rid of some debt (I have no idea how this would work) or to give them enough time to wind down. Or something else? Who knows but definitely weird.
If you want to split the Leave vote that way you would have also needed to split the Remain vote by asking people what Remain means: something usually presented as obvious by Remainers but it's by no means so. For instance if the UK had remained and the EU had then announced all the opt-outs were voided, that would have been a major change but well within the remit of what was possible in a Remain scenario (without the threat of leaving what stops the EU doing whatever it wants to a member state?).

You can play games with re-running things forever to try and get a Remain win, but the entire reason the referendum was run that way was an attempt to get a Remain win. That's why it was presented as an all-or-nothing vote when basically all the Eurosceptics who had been pushing for a referendum wanted something less than fully leaving to be on the menu (mostly a pile of reforms and much less distance/opting out of any future treaty changes/the ECJ/etc). Cameron specifically set it up as Leave/Remain because he thought nobody could countenance fully leaving and it would force a Remain (unreformed) victory. Obviously he was wrong.
I seem to be in the minority of HN users that love passkeys. I use them for any login that I reasonably can. When creating a passkey I create one in iCloud Keychain as well as in 1Password. I do agree that there needs to be a better import/export story, but I have confidence that will come.

Why or how do you trust home security (camera) setups?
There's plenty of DIY options out there that seem to provide the same quality and given everything we know about privacy and security on and of smartphones, I was wondering how people trust home security companies?

DIY is, of course, a matter of setup and maintenance time but I went into a shop that specializes in home security and the sales men made a very bad impression on me.

Any recommendations and maybe even proof that these companies are trustworthy, like open source software, that trustworthy friends, most of who don't believe in any other home security than big dogs, can check?
I think the AI investor class wants to find a way to have it replace a large amount of human labor. I think if they succeed this will damage our society irreparably which, like it or not, only works well when people have jobs.

I’m also very worried about AI spam and impersonation eroding all interpersonal trust online which has obvious disastrous consequences.

From what our geological archives tell us, this seems rather the most likely scenario, even if we all managed to transform ourselves into wise people whose main trait would be temperance and judicious anticipation driven by efficient peaceful communication leading to the whole humanity living in harmony. Having a species that reach a stable form over million of years is not that easy.
Craig was arguably more like the Bond in the books - a government assassin. I grew up watching the bond movies with my Dad (who'd read the books), and to me Sean Connery was the real bond, since he came first, but Roger Moore playing it for laughs was entertaining too. I never cared for any of the others.
I can see how Amazon’s data driven culture is completely incompatible with creative endeavours. Given their recent focus on short-termism I’m not convinced it’s that great for strategic thinking either.
I see it as a better Physics - current Physics as we understand it is messy, continuous, unintuitive, and contradictory. Kinda frustrating for computer science folks.

Game of Life on the other hand is so simple it can be written up in a few lines of code, and still can give rise to endless complexity.
> The company now suggests that extended Dungeons & Dragons campaigns begin with a session in which players discuss their expectations and list topics to avoid, which could include sexual assault or drug use. Dungeon masters are encouraged to establish a signal that allows players to articulate their distress with any subject matter and automatically overrule the dungeon master’s own story line.

This got a lot of flak. But I can see why they did it. Many such cases of DMs, especially the game store kind, using DnD as their own sexual assault simulator. RPGHorrorStories has a lot.
I'm sure you can understand why the counterargument to that nihilistic contention need not even be articulated? Presumably you think your participation in this discussion will change the course of history.
Not to be confused with Colby the Computer.
The genetics for both are recessive in complex ways that aren't fully understood. But like the article says recessive does not mean diluted. For example the genes for red hair are quite widely distributed across central Asia. Every once in a while you'll get an Arab, Turk, Persian, Kazakh, Mongolian or even Tibetan or Han Chinese person born to two dark haired parents but the kid has auburn-brown hair, or light eyes - though usually more grey than blue.

One thing that has become clearer from recent DNA sequencing of ancient remains is that all the human visible variation is quite new: we'd recognize none of the human ethnicities or subpopulations or whatever we should call them, of 10,000 years ago. For example it seems Britain in the late mesolithic was inhabited by a short stocky people with dark skin, dark hair, and blue or grey eyes.
Yeah ... 'Happy Sun-sun' is a bit wtf. 'Happy Closest-standing' at least alludes to why the time is special. BUT, has lost its stellar significance.

this might be nice for the shareholders, and quite surprising compared to most platforms, but not everyone is content.

from the artist's perspective, it is quite bad money wise (https://www.rocksoffmag.com/the-impact-of-music-streaming-on...).

from a consumer's perspective however, music streaming enjoys the relative lack of "exclusive" content that other media suffers from. so i personally have no issues with its current state.

No, Apple directly benefits in that users only get the "magical" user experience when using Apple devices. There are two perverse incentives: one for Apple to lock their users into their platform, and one for Apple to implement a "better" experience unilaterally. Apple does both of these things.

Today, if I create a passkey on an Apple iPhone, and I pay Apple a monthly fee for iCloud, I can then walk over to an Apple Macbook I own and sign in to the same web site without another step.

But if I don't pay Apple a monthly fee, OR the phone isn't an iPhone, OR the laptop isn't a Macbook, then I don't get that user experience.

There is absolutely no technical reason that I shouldn't be able to get precisely the same level of security and precisely the same user flow without having to need all the devices to be Apple. But Apple chooses to restrict how it can happen.

Fun facts about SQLite
I think that we find the idea of thermostat having experiences strange because, subconsciously, we think of experiences only being accessible to someone / something that has a "will to live" (in the words of Schopenhauer).

I.e. I don't think thermostats want anything. They don't have a capacity to care whether they fall apart or not, whether anyone is satisfied with their function or not. But, life, even in the very simplest form wants something. Experiences to living organisms is what makes them more effective at doing what they want.

What makes living creatures want something: I have no idea. I remember hearing a hypothesis tying this to better preservation of energy... but I don't know about that. But, if I had to guess, it must be something that's available to micro-organisms, so, it has to have some physical / chemical explanation...
A few months ago after updating the UEFI firmware on my Thinkpad T14 Gen 4 (Intel), debian 12 bookworm (stable repo - kernel version 6.1) would become unresponsive (desktop freezing, wifi malfunctioning). After updating the kernel to version 6.11 via bookworm backports, the issues were resolved.

Their use of "phenomenal" and "phenomenology" confuses me as a layman, but I'll lay out their (likely relevant) definitions and hope to use that to better understand what is being proposed.

> phenomenal: Known or derived through the senses rather than through the mind.

> phenomenology: A philosophy or method of inquiry based on the premise that reality consists of objects and events as they are perceived or understood in human consciousness and not of anything independent of human consciousness.

So the claim (highlighted especially in paragraph 3) is that, outside of humans, things that are perceived may also exist in conscious thought (of non-humans).
I have felt that pull myself, but can't help that even the "gesture of appreciation" is a somewhat hollow and superficial feeling of status. From that standpoint, I don't know that it's all that good of a signal to chase especially given the larger context of the limitations of Twitter.

My take after reading those is that the films are generally better works, but the other thing that's worth remembering is that Eon was out of the business of "adapting" Fleming novels after _Live and Let Die_. The follow-up (_The Man With The Golden Gun_) shares a title with a novel, but little else, and after that the films are mostly just a pastiche of whatever's-hot-in-Hollywood (e.g., _Moonraker_ having a space battle) and story elements pulled from lesser Fleming works and short stories.

The exception obviously is the _Casino Royale_ with Daniel Craig, which most fans view as one of the best Bond films. I've forgotten the specifics, but that book was unavailable to Eon for decades due to some copyright and licensing shenanigans.
I thought Roger Moore played the sociopathic side of Bond quite well; the same level of bon mot whether he's playing cards or just sliced someone's head off.

Wouldn't any potion, including potions of healing, be considered "drug use"? Howabout excessive drinking by dwarves at a tavern in the canonical DM party formation ritual?
I mean I like them in theory but they should just be passwords you can't easily copy from your password manager. You can export them, which I'm sure someone will trick people into doing, but that's somewhat different from being tricked into pasting ul0vek1tt3ns into legitimateapple-support.info.

As for sharing passkeys: never grabbed a friend's Netflix account? Had to log into your kid's college application page to confirm your income? Sign up for an appointment for your elderly parents? This is a thing people actually need to do, and value more than avoiding being phished. Believe me. It's not worth abandoning for "ok there is a possibility someone can be phished if the key material isn't protected by a hardware key and three layers of DRM".
Right, it's so simple to make a good Bond film once you accept that you need to give the people what they want, people here being actual Bond fans (not "society") and what they want being classic male escapist fantasy.

This push to "modernize" Bond is regressive once you realize male desire has not changed and thus there is nothing to modernize. Depictions of a cool spy dude getting beautiful women to fall for him is not "sexist" and not in need of modernization.

More generally the "modernization" angle is all about making the films which appeal to both men and women, which is a losing proposition for Bond which is fundamentally a franchise for men. You are always going to create a more compelling piece of content by tailoring it to a specific group, and the vast gulf in the sorts of content men and women tend to enjoy (generalization of course with many exceptions, but generally true nonetheless) means any bridge spanning that gap will be flimsy and weak.

Show HN: Share Amazon Cart & More
Lots of players have problems with FIDE, who act like they own the game of chess. Magnus is simply the only one who can afford to push back.

How the situation was handled is unbelievable. Unlike FIDE, players are there to work and concentrate. Telling people to change between games is just insulting.

The smugness of Sutovsky (FIDE "CEO") and the chief arbiter in the interviews on the topic is off the charts. Anand was more diplomatic, but also a raging bureaucrat.

I presume that Dvorkovich (FIDE president) and the sponsors had a stern talk with several FIDE people.

It does look to the public like Magnus got his will like a three-year-old, but there are more issues behind the scenes. It is good to see a victory over the cancel bureaucracy and some return to normalcy.
Have you:

A) read the article, paying particular attention to the screenshots therein (ESPECIALLY particularly to the user experience on an Apple device), and

B) noted the part of my comment where I say that I should be able to set the choice of using hardware keys one time instead of needing to do so every time I create a new credential?

Today it's so hard to use a hardware key with Google Play Services that I (a software developer who actually works in this field) have had users tell me their phone didn't let them do it at all. In reality, the support was there, is was just so unusable they didn't even understand they had that option.
Yep. So many races/species have darkvision, and so many people prefer playing non-humans, that it usually doesn't matter, and a single Cleric will typically have Light prepared anyway.

I should really start running more sessions in a dark place, where stealth matters.
> The concept of a passkey as desired by Apple, Google, and Microsoft is that every user magically authenticates using their OS, and has no ability to authenticate otherwise. [...] The reason the UX is confusing is because the OS vendors don't want the users using non-OS software or hardware

Completely untrue. Both iOS/macOS and Android offer an API for third party passkey implementations ("backends"). macOS also offers a client API for that that browsers ("frontends") can hook into. You can use Strongbox (a KeePass implementation) with Chrome, iCloud Keychain with Firefox, a Yubikey with Safari...

It's really as open an ecosystem as it gets at this point, and for software implementations, there isn't even attestation that could allow relying parties to block any specific implementation.

> The thing stopping us from getting to that ideal state is that the provider of the FIDO "platform" (the software that lets you choose a key to use) is the OS vendor instead of the browser vendor [...]

No, this "ideal state" is in fact the reality I've been experiencing for the past few months.
Looks good until Mallory sets up a phishing site that tricks users into installing a thing that registers itself as their “password manager” and mitms their entire life.

Not saying there aren’t other reasons the OS vendors are pushing back on supplying that hook, but that’s one that is at least vaguely pro-user.
> Doesn't Apple primarily want the best user experience, and the safest way to use devices?

Presumably, yes.

> So they should get onboard with what is best for the user.

What happens when there’s a conflict? They usually go with the option that screws the smaller niche user base.
Your post said Blue ticks had nothing to do with being "verified" or "authentic." and It was a mark of social cachet, not authenticity..

That is clearly false. The blue check was an accurate signal of authenticity through verification by Twitter. What it was not was a universal verification mechanism that scaled to being able to verify everyone who used the platform. Those are two different things, and the lack of universality does not mean that the programme was not useful in valuable in providing a means to prove authenticity and avoid impersonation of the many people it did cover.

Moreover, the company was actively working on ways to scale it up into being able to reliably verify many more people before Musk bought it.

Now all that is gone, and a blue check means nothing to other users of the platform other than as a sign that the holder is paying for premium features. It's no longer a trustworthy verification mechanism.

Which, again, is a statement that gets to the root of the idea of "technical debt". You can excuse almost anything like that. It still doesn't make it better than a design that works by default. I remain shocked that this seems to be controversial.

FWIW: io_uring has been very loudly criticized for being hard to implement, maintain and use, via some of this same logic, yes. This isn't a senseless platform flame. Linux does bad stuff too. There are good designs and bad designs everywhere, and io_uring is probably not one (though to be fair it does have some extremely attractive performance characteristics, so I guess one might be tempted to forgive a few warts in the interface layers).

Why interview solely the grognards? Even OSE options like Shadowdark have adopted terms like ancestry over race. It sorta feels like this article is trying to create an issue where none exists.

Changing race to species has not been a concern for myself, my players, or those I know. We're more concerned with improving the mechanics and speed of gameplay, balancing martials and casters, improvements to the core books, backgrounds, bastions, and impactful changes.

We want more variety at the table, not just everyone choosing the same optimized builds from RPGBOT. I think Crawford in the article puts it well: “People really wanted to be able to mix and match their species choice with their character-class choice. They didn’t want choosing a dwarf to make them a lesser wizard.”
As someone who was affected by this, I opted to go ahead and try and get my money's worth (although I have another service doing this in parallel). Also they were supposed to file an S Corp election for me, so hopefully I'll be able to find out the latest status of that. This whole thing is such a mess.
Plus you forgot the 1978 Seabrook Protests. Most of the hate was due to where it was built, not the fact it was built. It was really NIMBY on steroids plus a poor choice of location. So even conservative people in NH hated that plant due to its location.

But the press spun it as hate towards nuclear power. So that put a big black mark on the industry, maybe even more so because both Liberals and Right Wing people came out against it.
